Fantastic! The noise, the flames, the smoke, the vibrations. Absolutely brilliant!

Motor yang menakutkan.

That Giant Piston would act like a Wacker Packer! The Vibration would be Crazy - Cool None the Less

So exciting! It will be fun to see when all the little bugs get worked out, a permanent starter is figured out and the first road test ride!! Loving the videos, great job to all involved!!

My dad used to say Harley's shook themselves apart. Glad to see someone given them some competition!

and the flames came out of the right port too! 😁

They have it jetted a little lean. It causes them to backfire through the carb. It really doesn't matter. This thing will vibrate so bad no one will ride it more than one time or one mile.

5 intake ports, two exhaust but the sleeve only has four cutouts. They line up in the correct way during the cycle it's fascinating how these Bristol engines worked.

Tremors felt down here in Aus.! I note that the chain has already surrendered to the impending massive torque load. Congrats and well done.

The sprocket bolts shot through in fear as well.

Absolutely magnificent! Ive been excited for this day to come and now im even more excited to see it running and hopefully going on the road sometime! Great work and enjoy ur drinks!

Such a beautiful piece of engineering. Im here from Facebook! Saw a short of you starting the bike. Saw how simple yet complex your engine design was, and became instantly intrigued. Glad you finally have it started!

Niiiccee!!! Earth shattering machine!!! You can be really proud!!!!

Yay it lives! Nice work! Cheers from Canada!

Congratulations. Well done!

Last week, me and a bloke put to together a Vulcan 400 with straight pipes.the noise in the shed when we started it was deafening. But now i saw this beast, id say it was rather quiet...😂😂😂 Great job there!

Well done guy's great work by you all, very special moment.

Congratulations, been looking forward to forward to this😊

Congratulations 🎉I've been following your build from the beginning and this is an absolute milestone

Sounds like a Biggs & Strappin lawnmower 😂

Its sounds incredible!! Congrats!!

Thunderous! Congrats!!

Great work chap... Massive milestone..

What an achievement. A unique bike with a special engine. Well done to all the team:-)

It's only when you got on it I could see just how big that cylinder is! 😊

Congratulations to the success.

Very nice, great success, been waiting for this day since discouvering your chanel, but watch out for the decompresser, cause you can see it beeing succed in in the video.

Congratulations that thing sounds rowdy!

Mate...that is...on another level. Congrats ❤🎉

even the camera got excited 😂

Congratulations, Mark and team!! What a great sound.

Brilliant! I've been following this for a while. Amazing achievement with such an ingenious ,unusual bit of engineering history . Enjoy the pint!

Congratulations from the Netherlands!

So chuffed for you Mark!

Congrats! Hopefully you'll be able to get the starter situation solved without resorting to dropping compression further. Also, I wonder if you need a stronger spring on the compression relief? It seems like it may have been getting sucked open a bit on the intake stroke whenever you closed the throttle.

Well done lads!!!

Wow! 🎉congratulations dude! It sounds INCREDIBLE!

Amazing to finally see it run! Well done sir, congratulations on your success. Soon it will be cruising down the road with a very happy man in the seat. 🖖

Hahahahah.....fkkin brilliant!! Another Hercules cylinder breathes life again!! Only 13 more to go to make a complete engine....WELL DONE!!!

Well done👍👍 Cheers from California.

Bloody brilliant! I was starting to despair!😄

I love the way EEEEEVERYTHING shakes, well done guys I’m going to watch more!😊

Epic! Clear prop! Chain in this case! Congrats!

Need new fillings after every ride 😂 awesome!

Well done! 😎

Awesome! Sounds amazing. Well done guys 👍

Very well done. Excellent !

As a biker, I'm curious. As an engineer, I'm fascinated. First time this has appeared in my feed, I have some catching up to do 🫡

I thought my KTM 500 vibrated until I saw this beat fire up!

Epic!... congratulations to you and Bob!

Wow. Hats off to you guys. Bad ass.

Awesome job, boys!! From the left side of the pond👍😎

Congrats! Awesome achievement!

Well done Mark and the crew. 🎉 Great achievement! Sounds a bit like an old two stroke 😝 just now but I’m sure it will be purring in no time. Like I say, brilliant results and very inspiring. See you on the road real soon bud 👏🤘

Love that it uses half the fork stroke when starting up 😂😂

Im a new viewer and I’m not sure what I just watched here but it looks amazing

Congrats!

Well done, its a runner ! :)

Awesome! I just caught up on watching the whole series. When you said £300 for the aluminium to build the new head I nearly sh8t myself. I was shouting "Make one out of something cheap to check if the starter can beat the compression." Of course, you have done it now, but I have piece of nylon if you want it. About a foot across and eight inches thick. Fnaar fnaar. I drive all over the place, frequently near Derby, not a huge problem to get it nearer. (I can't fit in on my lathe and want it to go to a good home.) I will be watching future episodes, just say if you want it, I'm known as Grog.

I especially like the exhaust system.

Outstanding! 🤘💪👌👍

Wow that thing is a beast! Very cool.

Excellent can't wait to see it roll down the road now.

Amazing work!

def needs an exhaust system to make it more bearable to even ride it lol

I'm not sure what I just came across but I just subscribed...

I had my doubts, but congrats.😊😊

Excellent seems to run very well, I was thinking a while ago about if an air starter would work - compressed air in the cyl type

Great work. Well done

just found out your channel, my lord, what kind of engine is that!? haha now i need to dig more into your videos, greetings from México.

So great, I just sit here with a big grin on my face, enjoying your succes. I´ll drink to that! ;o)

Woop woop it's alive 👏🏻congratulations to all, just brilliant 👍🏻🇮🇪

Awesome, possum!

Well done!

shaking not vibration .. thumbs up ...

Give new meaning to the term, BIG single!! Seismic!!!

great job guys

Some seventy years ago -late 1950's / early 1960's I was working in the ERD [ Engine Research Dept ] Patchway works of the then Bristol Aero Engines Limited. We used to run single cylinder sleve valve test engines. Hercules or Centaurus size pots, they ran as far as I can recall with a heavy flywheel. I think this motorcycle application may have had a crankcase etc from one of these units. A sleeve valve crank mechanism would have to be involved. I reckon it would jump up and down a bit without a well balanced crankshaft and maybe a flywheel as well. We ran many separate parts of the whole engines to research and hopefully improve each units performance both piston and jet engines. Piston engine research was just about finished when I was assigned to the ERD.

@@philiphicks9656 interesting! This is our own design, but I'd like to see any old photos of the single cylinder test units. Especially any power graphs - I don't suppose you have any? Our flywheels are 50kg.

Forever and ever Even growing up when I was like 12 yrs old I would look for videos of one of these running. Absolutely awesome what you guys have done and it sounds amazing. The Napier sabre engine is artwork always found it amazing how much power it truly could make. Very very cool beyond cool. Subscribed it's so cool.
